Union County has opened a three-week public comment period on alternate designs for six critical intersections throughout the County. The intersections were identified in 2019 as part of a Critical Intersection Analysis. According to Planning Director Lee Jenson, “The fact that these intersections are inside five municipalities demonstrates the effective relationships and engagement we have throughout the County.”

The next step is development of design alternatives and cost estimates to help municipalities, Union County, and the NCDOT determine the preferred solution to address safety and congestion issues at these six intersections:

NC 16 and NC 75 in Waxhaw

NC 75 and Old Providence in Waxhaw

Forest Lawn and Potter in Weddington

Lawyers and Stevens Mill in Stallings

Old Camden and Morgan Mill in Unionville

Sutherland and Walkup in Monroe

There are two sessions scheduled for residents to review the alternatives and provide feedback. These are drop-in sessions and there will not be a formal presentation. The format and information provided will be the same.
